Silva: Jones taught me a few new things
Anderson Silva: “It was a normal training, he did a few things, and I did a few things. It was a tough training for both of us. We learned a lot.
Last week while both in town for a press event, Jon Jones and Anderson Silva got in some light sparring at the Zuffa headquarters. The two have a great relationship and the sparring was light. The two had never trained together and Silva was thankful for the experience, saying that Jones even showed him a couple new tricks:
“I have a good relationship with him, we’re friends for a long time, since he started his career, but we never had the chance to train together before,” Silva said. “We were both in Las Vegas and it happened.
“It was a normal training, he did a few things, and I did a few things. It was a tough training for both of us. We learned a lot. He taught me a few things I didn’t know, I gave him a few tips. I like him a lot, and it was cool.”
